About this color

Santa Fe sits at 19° on the color wheel with 39% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 39% saturation gives it enough color presence to register clearly without competing for dominance in a composition. Its mid-range lightness positions it as a mid-tone: neither a background color nor a deep accent, but something in between.

In digital environments, Santa Fe is rendered as rgb(177, 109, 78), where the red channel dominates at 177, creating a strongly red-skewed appearance. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.

For print, Santa Fe translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 38M 56Y 31K. With a moderate key (31%), this color uses black to deepen the chromatic channels rather than replace them, a profile that typically holds up well in both offset and digital print.
